Hello! I am the creator of armadillo and a graduating college student
I have been exploring Gleam since its stable release and have been an active member (at least I think so) of the community for a year now. I tend to be quite... selective with programming languages, especially regarding syntax and minor design details. Gleam was my introduction to functional programming and the BEAM ecosystem, and I fell in love with how intuitive it is to learn and apply to my projects
My first major project in Gleam was "ewe", a web server that began as a learning experiment and eventually became my college graduation project. Since then I have contributed to and developed other packages. I am incredibly grateful that Gleam became my gateway to open source contributions. I have always wanted to be part of a collaborative community of talented developers, and I am glad to have found that here
I created armadillo to learn about DNS and to gain more experience with developing apps in Gleam, while also offering the community an open codebase to reference and use
It is wonderful to finally be part of a community I had been searching for :)

#4On Gleam's homepage:
"Black lives matter. Trans rights are human rights. No nazi bullsh*t."
Important information to know about a programming language /s.

I think so, too.
I've had woke people attempt to do me harm in the past, but the Gleam people didn't strike me as that kind of woke: they've been nothing but helpful.
If you think black lives don't matter, or that trans people deserve no rights, or support nazis... the Gleam community probably wouldn't want to have you.
I -- controversially -- think black lives matter and white lives matter. And everyone else too!

I was being sarcastic.

Did you inform the authorities?

Let's say there's a language that has the following on their homepage: "It's OK to be White, no child groomers. No commie bullshit."
If you think it's not OK to be White, or that people should be allowed to sexually groom children, or support commies...
Black and White lives matter, but that's not what Glean is signalling.

The statement is obviously not about the language, but rather about the community. Drawing some basic lines to keep edgelord disruptors at bay (or at least quiet with their reactionary bullshit), so that the focus can remain on the language. Maybe it's a little overstated, but at this point, any of my worries about "woke" have been overshadowed by open fascism ("autocratic authoritarianism" for those who get triggered by the f-word).

What are you even talking about?? I made an account just to reply to this. Thousands of comments filled with poorly-written ramblings on this site and yours was the biggest I have ever seen. There are so many layers of bullshit in your comment I can't even fathom what to write, I hope you improve as a human being and learn to use that wet thing inside your skull.

Yes I'm fully aware - I was just playing along.

His account is a realtime view of a freak having a mental breakdown, and the mods are like "this is fine" lol.
